Jackson Advisory Committee Meeting April 25, 2013
Community Advisory Committees Invitations have been extended for community advisory committee members in each of our three service areas, Lenawee, Hillsdale and Jackson. The committees will meet bi-annually. Representatives from government, manufacturing, education, banking, law enforcement and business owners were invited. The purpose is for the college to receive input on how we can support the community, business and students. These groups will also provide important voices from the community they serve as the College considers new initiatives.

Why? • Nearly 1/4 of the Community College’s in the State of Michigan do not have the word community in their name. • Many high school graduates perceive, “community colleges” as a “lesser” option than four-year schools and universities. • “Community College” is confusing to international students, a market we are pursuing in our strategic plan. • With passage of recent legislation, JCC is now able to offer bachelor’s degrees in culinary arts and energy production.
Community College Baccalaureate Degrees • According to the Community College Baccalaureate Association, 17 states now have community colleges that offer at least one bachelor's degree. In addition, a number of these colleges do not have “community” in their name. • Florida Colleges: 18 community colleges offer a four-year degree. Of those colleges, only 4 have community in their name. • Washington Colleges: 4 community colleges added bachelor’s degrees and 2 do not have community in their name. • Texas Colleges: 3 community colleges in Texas have established bachelor degree programs and none have community in their name.
Re-Positioning JCC in a Broader Global Perspective • New Legislation, House Bill 4148 would enable community college’s to offer bachelor of arts degrees in: • Nursing, Allied Health, Wastewater Treatment Technology , Manufacturing Technology, and Ski Resort Management; • With On-Line Learning and a Global Focus, should a name change be considered?
Results of Community Focus Group a Year ago • Approximately 60 community members, varied in ages, backgrounds and relationships with JCC participated. • Agreed that the goals of the college are changing so name change may be necessary • Needed for “credibility” • Fresh start with new vision • Breaks stigma • Explain the reasons for the proposed change
Biggest Concerns • Losing Jackson out of the name would be hard • Expense • Need confident name
Questions ? • What can JCC do in the Jackson Community to be a better partner ?
